Due to a number of steps I have taken overthe last several months, I am beginning to see activity increasing for my business. While I found the increased activity verygratifying, I must admit that a sense of overwhelm can creep into ones thoughtswhen it does occur. While some of whathas emerged is already clearly evident to me, it is those unknown items thatare still to become part of ones life which can get a person to thinking. After some reflection my friend pointed out to me that what washappening was a natural evolution of everything Ive worked toward in terms ofmy coaching studies and practice over the last two and a half years. She noted that I was not an individual wholeaves things to chance. Each step Ihave taken in terms of my training, organizations with which I have becomeinvolved, the methods I use to communicate with potential clients and recent studiesand certification which I am pursuing, have been carefully thought out and not goneinto lightly. That approach in turnwould serve me well as I went forward, particularly in terms of addressing anyconcerns around being overwhelmed, since it was one which was carefully aimedand measured to meet my commitments and responsibilities and at the same timedo so in a manner that matched how I wanted to live my life. There has much I have written in this blog since starting it in Octoberof 2010 dealing with the process of change. A blog that I published on January 19, 2011 spoke of comparing the cycleof change to a game of cards. During acard game there are four distinct cycles. Those cycles are the shuffle, dealing the cards, playing the hand andtossing the cards in when the hand is done. The planning and the steps I have taken over the last couple of years havevery much been part of a shuffle stage. There was a lot of taking stock, reviewing what was important to me interms of how I wanted to develop my business and deciding which steps totake. However, now the deal stage of the game is emerging. In the deal stage action truly begins. Portions of the plan are implemented. The tendency is there to do things either onestep at a time or certainly in only a few manageable steps at a time. Trust tends to grow as one makes progressthrough this stage. The more success oneperceives having, the more they are willing to take on to make thingshappen. Deal is a very exciting andoptimistic stage, although there is always that sense of fear you may take aninaccurate step along the way. While certainly at this point I do not know how the new steps in thedevelopment of my business are going to completely turn out, I have a greatdeal of anticipation in seeing how they do. For those of you who are in the process of moving forward withsignificant transitions in your life, how do you feel about those changes? I would love to hear from you and shareexperiences. You can reach me at [email protected] andI would love to exchange correspondence with you. If you doyoure planning well, take steps that make sense toward where you are lookingto get and continue to respond to the answers you get back, (whether theyregiven to you verbally or by assessing the progress you are making toward yourgoal) you will eventually start reaching a point where your dreams start comingto fruition. Admittedly, that is both ajoyous and somewhat anxious time. However, if the steps you have taken have allowed you to do somethingyou really want or to live your life in a way that matches to your dreams andvalues, it is well worth the effort. Youwill be prepared to accept what emerges from your life at this point becauseyou have put in the forethought to do things the way that work best for you.
